Even though this isn't EVERY great song by Rogers and Co., every track brings me back to my teens. Good stuff. Am looking forward to a compilation of all of Rogers' work with other bands, as well. This is a concise, no fluff collection of great songs sounding just like they did the first time I heard them on my old transistor radio.
I love classic rock, but I never really got into Bad Company. That was until I was in the car and heard "Shooting Star" being played on the radio! What a fantastic song/story combined! I almost cried when it got to the third stanza explaining Johnny's unfortunate death, how sad! The rest of the album is fantastic as well! Bad Company is gold in my book now!
It struck me as odd when I was 15, as it still does today, that the band named this LP "10 from 6"; there are no tracks from Burnin' Sky, so it is actually 10 from 5. It's still great rock and roll, though. I would have added "Burnin' Sky," plus "Good Lovin' Gone Bad," and "Rock Steady," but it's hard to complain with what's here.
Good easy-moving rock. Saw them in concert and really enjoyed the show. Listen to the samples and download a few if not the whole album.
This "no frills" band has got some sharp, bluesy hard rockin' goin' on behind the great Paul Rodgers' strong, clear, vocals. There is nothing disappointing about this anthology, except that they could have at least doubled the number of good songs on it to 18 - you don't need "Electricland," or anything else from their 6th and last album (1982). Do consider picking up these additional tracks from their earlier 4 - 5 albums, 1974 - 1979: Rock Steady; Honey Child, and the beautiful ballads Simple Man, Love Me Somebody, and Silver, Blue & Gold; Burning Sky, Morning Sun, Man Needs Woman; and Gone, Gone, Gone. I don't think you'd be disappointed with any of those.
This will jet propell you right back to the first time you heard it. The quality of sound is 10 times better than my 8 track.
